Section 14. How will the world end?

a) “The world will end when all things in it have been rightly judged by His judgment. ⁹The world will end with the benediction of holiness upon it. ¹⁰When not one thought of sin remains, the world is over. ¹¹It will not be destroyed nor attacked nor even touched. ¹²It will merely cease to seem to be.” (ACIM, M-14.2:8-12)

b) “The world will end when its thought system has been completely reversed. ²Until then, bits and pieces of its thinking will still seem sensible. ³The final lesson, which brings the ending of the world, cannot be grasped by those not yet prepared to leave the world and go beyond its tiny reach. ⁴What, then, is the function of the teacher of God in this concluding lesson? ⁵He need merely learn how to approach it; to be willing to go in its direction. ⁶He need merely trust that, if God’s Voice tells him, it is a lesson he can learn, he can learn it.” (ACIM, M-14.4:1-6)

c) To turn hell into Heaven is the function of God’s teachers, for what they teach are lessons in which Heaven is reflected. ¹⁰And, now sit down in true humility, and realize that all God would have you do, you can, do. ¹¹Do not be arrogant and say you cannot learn His Own curriculum. ¹²His Word says otherwise. “¹³ (ACIM, M-14.5:9-13)
